Skating in downtown Portland

Downtown sidewalks are for pedestrians. Skateboarders may use most streets, but are required to stay off the sidewalks in the downtown core.

This includes the area bounded by SW Jefferson, Naito Parkway, 13th Ave., and NW Hoyt. Skateboards are prohibited on both the streets and the sidewalks on the Transit Mall along 5th and 6th Avenues. Skateboards are also prohibited on the South Park Blocks, the North Park Blocks, Pioneer Courthouse Square, and Director Park.
